Scorer: K Vairavan | Commentator: Matt Roller
9.43pm: Brilliant individual performance from Sunil Narine. 13 not out off 5 balls to win it after taking 2 for 14 in 20 with the ball. He is named Meerkat Match Hero (yes, really) as the Invincibles go 1 from 1. Sam Curran top-scored for them in the chase, rescuing the innings along with Jordan Cox after a slow start, and Sam Billings played an important hand before Narine sealed the job. Thanks for joining us.

Ellis to Narine, 2 runs, wide slower ball, outside off stump, Narine plinks it out to deep cover with one hand off the bat and jogs through for two! South London triumphs over North!

Ellis to Narine, FOUR, hard length, Narine clears the front leg and slaps it away through cover! Pepper dives at full stretch on the rope but can't get there
Suddenly it's a coin toss game. 6 off 3.

Ellis to Narine, SIX, another slowie, picked up into the leg side. Mitchell runs to his left at midwicket, dives and grasps it while looking to throw it back into play to his team-mate, but can only fumble it over the rope!

Ellis to Narine, no run, slower ball, and Narine is through the shot early. Swings and misses, looking to flog him over midwicket

Ellis to Narine, 3 wides, full, down the leg side. Past the pads, past the diving Rossington, and down to fine leg! Free runs for Oval as Narine scampers back for the second
Ellis to close it out. Three boundaries still needed for Oval. Five men in the ring.
